Analysts: further employment growth faces barriers

Labor market expansion is increasingly constrained. Expanding training opportunities and further development of vocational trainings are essential for the continued involvement of the public, the unemployed and the inactive – analysts told MTI commenting on the latest data.

According to a report released by the Central Statistical Office (KSH) on Wednesday morning, in the fourth quarter of last year, the average number of employees increased by 38,000 compared to a year before. The number of persons employed in the primary labor market increased by 52 thousand, while the number of employees working abroad increased by 9.5 thousand, while the number of public employees decreased by 24 thousand.
